Customer's benefit

Powerful
The case hardened and manganese phosphated profile steel chain provides about 15 % more capacity at an identical nominal diameter when compared to the traditional round steel chain. The larger cross-sectional area reduces wear and increases the lifetime of the chain. The load hook with stable, guided hook latch and safety rubber buffer provides maximum safety.

Weatherproof
The cathodic dip-paint coating (KTL coating) offers good protection against mechanical wear and high UV resistance. A feature of the hoist motor is the protection class IP65. It is dust proof and protected against water jets. The LP is perfectly suitable for outside use, even under the most arduous conditions. On open-air events or on concert tours, the rigging professional will appreciate  the weather resistance and reliability of these electric chain motors.

Brake
The DC spring-loaded brake allows safe braking of the load with optimum braking efficiency. The second brake can be mounted on the existing shaft and independently monitored. This proven brake system is highly reliable and easy to maintain.

Compact
LPM250 and the LP500 are modular in design with compact construction which is why they are perfectly suited for integration in trusses. LPM250 fits in the 300 mm square truss and LP500 in the 400 mm square truss. Regardless of its compact size, wearing parts can be replaced in a simple manner, making it the hoist technicians’ friend as well.
